Some pictures for you guys
[Nexus 5X Accessories] pezza10:
Nice photos. Just wanted to ask how the rhinoshield feels in the hand, and how much bulk it adds to the device? Also do you really think it would do much in a drop as the product claims?
[Nexus 5X Accessories] zipredictive:
Well it's not bad at all it feels good in the hand. It's lighter then the adopted one and doesnt add too much bulk.

The adopted gives a little more grip. Maybe because it's satinized (dont know if it is the correct word) I mean "grainy"

This is my first phone with a bumper/case, never used.

I'm using the adopted one right now not for a particular reason, maybe because this one covers the back .

Both cases are good. The bumper could protect the phone from those breakneck falls? well I dont know why but Id say... it's close, more then the google one.

It gives me the feeling that its a good bumber to protect the phone, thats why its not so thin... "compromises"
[Nexus 5X Accessories] oddspec:
nice pics I ordered the rhino bumper cuz the n6 didn't have any decent bumpers
[Nexus 5X Accessories] gingus7:
I ordered the rhino as well. Only bumper for the 5x
[Nexus 5X Accessories] gingus7:
Got it. The biggest con is now the buttons are really hard to press.

still waiting on mine left nj 4 days ago still isnt here kinda pissed i order it direct
[Nexus 5X Accessories] gingus7:
Mine took a bit over a week ordering direct
[Nexus 5X Accessories] oddspec:
I ordered mine on the 7th
[Nexus 5X Accessories] joey4321:
Just got the rhinoshield, feels solid in hand, but disappointed at the buttons. Extremely hard to press and negates the double press of power for camera.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] gingus7:
I agree on the camera. Could have been a great case. May keep our for protection while MTB and snowboarding.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] oddspec:
Ya imm fix the power button issue easy

Just take the case off and paint a small dot on the inside of the power button with nail polish and few times til its hard hard and it will be more sensitive

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michelmaxy:
So i did format my SD card as an internal storage for 2 reasons: * i want to mange my SD card photos using Google photos (currently every time it forces me to open the built-in gallery just to delete a photo)

* Google Camera app can't save photos to SD card (i like HTC camera, but every time i tap to view my shot it lags for a second)

Using adoptable storage fixed both problems, but it introduce new ones. some apps by default install a part of the apk on the SD card.

[IMG="Apps"]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/59388579/XDA.jpg[/IMG]

Like super hexagon and threes.

Now i just can't install those using an APK file,, it just says "App not installed" so i did go to Google Play and install both of through Google Play, and that went fine!. but i toke 4 hours!! because downloading from Google Play is just a nightmare in my country. i Have to use my backed-up APKs.

Any idea?

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orta117:
Hi all,

I have a large catalogue of legitimately obtained GBS rims that I've been enjoying on my note 3 for some time. Recently treated myself to a note 12.2 pro tablet and was hoping to enjoy them on the device. Whilst I have tried 6 different emulators and have the correct .gba files both on sd card and the devices interns memory they just won't run. Was wondering why?

My note 3 was rooted and nodded with aryamod so do the emulators only work on rooted devices?any help would be great thanks
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Osama chohan:
Can you tell me the name of the emulator and the format of the rim file?

---------- Post added at 01:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 AM ----------

And No rooting doesn't have anything to do with rom not working unless you changed some system file kinda thing
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orta117:
Hi, thanks for getting back to me. All the roms are .gba files and the emulator is literally every single free fab emulator on the google play store. Some refuse to find the files at all, some will show them but when I click to load them the screen to just go solid black or solid white and then nothing happens. These are the same roms that ran fine on my note 3 and the same emulators that ran them.

Can you shed any light on what's going on?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orta117:
Anyone?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
Might just be a compatibility issue with the GPU in the tablet.... if it is, the emulator developer would have to address it.

If I understand correctly this would be useful if you add this as secondary ROM and use it with keyboard mouse and monitor like normal OS.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] fp1707:
I would do it but it takes me 24 hours to download😩

I'm trying to download it. But it is downloading at 6kb/sec. Says it will take 19 hours. But constantly fails. I wish someone mirrored it. I am curious anyone else who downloaded, was it slow for you?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] fp1707:
Slow speed magically got fixed

It was slow for me for a few hours. Then all of us sudden as I reached about 35%, the speed boosted to 2MB/s and it just finished downloading. Now I gotta upload a twrp backup right? I'm not sure how though:confused:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
Yeah I got it slowly using 'wget' which does resume downloads. But I tried the x86/PC not arm/flo. The OS is not open-sourced and the English version still has components in Chinese. I prefer the original http://www.android-x86.org/ for PCs.

But you could dual boot the way I did. First I install Phoenix. Then I install multirom. Then I install Pure Nexus as secondary ROM. The problem is, if I upload backup, I signed up with Google and other accounts on it:p

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] liuhuoz:
Download link

Well, for some reasons, Baidu would limit your download speed when they detected your foreign IPs. So next time maybe you can try to use a vpn pretending a Chinese IP to download files. But I can't know whether it works.

Besides, for a Chinese, it also a hard way to upload large files to Dropbox and Google drive or sth. else out of China. (Caz the GFW)

Anyway, this time i upload it to my MEGA.

BUT NOTICE, this is only the files which developer uploaded. NOT a backup rom.

Wish it helps.;)

I have already flash the phoenix os into my flo, and root it with nexus root kits. Then install the multirom manager, so soon it flash the twrp recovery into my flo.

And I backup the the phoenix os using the twrp recovery, here is the download link.

you can use twrp recovery to resotre it to your flo. (Remember extract files form zip).

phoenix os for flo with rooted (but no Google play services)

mega.nz/#!c4cQARqD!X_zHpB3T_xIo3aYFRJz-chhv9Gna9gcu5YV0dCYosCk

(also you need add https before the link)

Notice: You should know the risk to restore this backup, I will not be response for any bricked or stuck problems.

And I forgot to set the language as English, so you will see a Chinese UI.

You can:

1. open the setting (looks like a gear) and scroll to the end.

2.you will see a square wih a "T" inside it, that is the language setting.

3.open it and set the language you want.

P.S. I have uninstalled some pre-install apps those I don‘t need and install the Cool Market(instead of google play market), if you don't like it, you can uninstall it.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] liuhuoz:
U can flash Xposed and using App setting to modify DPI.

The “desktop” is chaozhuo file manager(It can modify the icon on desktop larger or smaller）

And the “taskbar” is Navigation Bar in fact, so using Gravity Box(LP) can change the height but the icon can't be changed.

It returns:

"Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file."

You have to tap fast before the pop-up comes up

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Ryou_Concord:
Everyone here has done such amazing work on this, my heart was sinking when I started reading it initially--but hot damn you guys are something else.

I've got my Nexus 7 2013 currently mounted in my car and I rely pretty heavily on it for navigation/music and what not, and use it in conjunction with a USB keyboard I... er--velcro'd to my steering wheel. When I discovered RemixOS I had immediately wanted to try to get it on my N7 but PhoneixOS looked like the better bet. I honestly just want to be able to have my Google Maps navigation up and my Google Play music playlist side-by-side. And then to be able to switch from one to the other with the USB keyboard. I've gotten along quite nicely without needing to tap on my screen at all, and I don't have to look down to change songs/alter navigation, but I worry that doing something like that to my tablet might introduce a lot more overhead.

In your experience with PhoenixOS on the Nexus 7 so far, would you say that it's reliable enough for daily navigation tasks and all that?

To give you an idea of what I did, I made this YouTube video a while back to describe to my friends online what my navigation system looked like (somehow entertainment system/navigation systems got brought up and I wanted to throw in my 2 cents).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w95bmoPSYUg

The thing really comes in handy when I'm waiting in a parking lot or on my lunch break in my car when I need to take down some notes, answer some emails, do some general web browsing, etc. And when I'm driving, it's a lot less distracting than one might think.
